You could try connecting a crossover cable between the two systems, skipping the router, and see what, if any, performance gains you get.
Yes, they are on the same subnet. As one of the machines is a laptop and therefore cannot have another nic added, connecting them directly would drag other problems with it (no net connectivity). But I might do that as a test. Thanks. Anybody have any other ideas, about what I could check? Thanks.
